Previewing Videos and Graphic Overlays

on the Firefly

Within the Media Review page, you will be able to view basic
previews (thumbnail images) of videos and graphic overlays on the
Firefly.

To preview a video on the Firefly:

2. Select the file from the media list on the right.

The media review box on the left will display the name of the
file and its size (in MBs).

3. Click the “Preview” button.

A short series of still, thumbnail images from the video will be
displayed in an animated sequence. This is a useful feature for you
to see what is in the video, especially when a file name is not
descriptive.
After you have previewed a particular video on the Firefly once,
the thumbnail images will be stored on the Firefly allowing the
preview to load automatically in successive review attempts.

In some cases, certain video files will be unavailable for preview.

To preview a graphic overlay on the Firefly:

1. Select the overlay tab at the top.
2. Select the file from the media list on the right.

The media review box on the left will display the name of the file,
its size (in MBs) and a thumbnail preview of the graphic overlay
image.
